I seem to be the exception here in that I love the idea of electric equipment AS LONG AS the equipment does what I need it do and does so just as,...
I'm running the Wildpeaks right now. Sure do like them! Great in snow. BUT, I've gotten them pretty caked in mud... a little too easy. I've...
Data point: Took down two dead Ash today. They were dead, dead. No twigglings up top, and bark in some places just peeled off. Picked the...
Not trying to dissuade you from getting a new saw, cause everyone always needs a new saw, but why not just put a 20'' bar on that 311?
Agreed. Mud and poison ivy. Not the best. I scour FBM where I can get easy stuff, but sometimes it's slim picking. In the end, the piles must...
Getting them out is a challenge too. Usually, I buck em up and carry the rounds to the closest trail where I can get em with my tractor. If I'm...
In Spring, I decided the dead Ash on my property had ripened enough and it was time for them to come down and move to my piles. Most of them are...
I accept everything you've experienced. BUT I'll say that I have a Hearthstone Heritage and haven't had a single issue. Granted, it only burned...
Wowsa, that's a lot of metal! Glad I don't really have to worry about that. Thanks to everyone for the edumacation!
My wife, a horticulturalist, says that technically it's not latin but botanical name - not all botanical names are Latin. There's a genus name...
Like a blue stain on the bark? Is it obvious?
How does oak or any wood give a warning? Genuine question. :emb: I don't really have to worry about nails or metal in my trees. There really...
You found that on Marketplace?!?!?! Super nice. I scour FBM probably several times per day and never get anything that good. And even if...
Yah, it's funny... prior to getting the stove in January, I didn't care what I burned, as long as it burned. Now that I'm capturing and using...
Not 100% in line with this thread, but close enough. It's all Yellow Birch, which I don't recall ever burning, so looking forward to it.[ATTACH]

Alas, I didn't get good pictures and couldn't justify such a thing. The kid I got it from dropped this tree with an 18'' bar between his two...
FBM score. MASSIVE Red Oak. 42'' at the base, 36'' on the trunk where I was sawing. Shoulda brought the bigger bar. Split the rounds it into...
The 400 is such a good saw! I'm looking for any excuse to pull it off the shelf. Wow, if that tree had fallen just five feet to the right, your...
Yup, that's a real good looking ash right there. And in fairly good shape, too. Mine have been perfectly ripened on the vine from EAB, so I've...
